What's the scoop on fruit?

Why do we love fruit? It’s easy to eat, tastes delicious and is packed full of nutrition. Here are some of the benefits of incorporating fruits into your diet:

• High in nutrients, such as vitamins, minerals, fiber and antioxidants
• Contains insoluble fiber to improve digestive health
• Contains prebiotic fibers to fuel beneficial probiotic bacteria in the gut and further enhance digestion
• May improve heart health due to antioxidant and anti-inflammatory components
• May improve skin health due to antioxidant and micronutrient content
• Provides an energy-boosting snack but is still relatively low in calories and completely free of saturated fats
